Of course there will be, but also remember there are MANY, not just an occasional one in any field, landscape, roofing, kitchen remodel, so many refuse if the customer won't pay up front. We've had that happen, and just said no, and they said, "ok, we pass, we don't work on that basis". They usually claim they have to order the materials involved, my opinion is a business that can't afford the materials unless they get paid FIRST, might not be a very financially sound business ! ? Strange situation recently. Neighbor signed contract for new roof, paid them, and in a couple days a truck arrived with all the materials, put all of the squares of shingles all over the roof, rolls of roofing paper, plywood, etc. and have never seen them again, about 3 weeks now. Have never seen that, they usually tear off old shingles into a dumpster and a truck with conveyor belt arrives and up goes the squares of shingles, nail strips, etc. and done in a day. Hope all that survives and stays on the neighbor's roof when the hurricane hits ! Wonder if they'd be on the hook for MORE materials if these all go flying ? Neighbor said they better not call and want more money to buy the same materials again !
